Ctrl-Alt-F1 should drop you to a login prompt on tty1.  (The same thing
goes for tty2 thru tty6 using corresponding F# keys.)

Subject: [GLLUG] Booting into text mode


When I boot into RedHat, X starts automatically.  Is
there a key combination I can hit to jump into text
mode without logging in?

I ask this because every now and then my screen is
garbled and I can't see anything well enough to log in
and start a console.  If I reboot once or twice, it
works fine.
